I understand it is up to JNT coach to decide who from advanced players will play doubles and who 2 singles? For now most likely Ito is the main weapon for china team, so she will play 2 singles, meaning no doubles. So we can have ishikawa/hirano in doubles. I also think they can take extra spare...

I do not understand something. If she is to be the Woman who win Gold medal next year in Tokio, then she shouldn't have any problems with wining china open now. Earning points in small tournaments where chinese do not play does not show her skills to beat them.

Yeah first I thought she was rushing too much and play too risky, but finally she overcame Kato who only responded with great serves. Kihara through all the match was better and Yes she is very promising.

One thing I am quite sure, none of top 2 seeds both on Men and women side Will not win this Tour. Jakub dyjas Will take title

Yes but it was not the torunament where LSW took part. Of course she defeat some good players including Chen i ching and Hirano but they are not chinese players. There is very easy Way to get ticket to olympics, if she is Such good she Will win all platinum events in 2019.

Compare LSW from January and April - completely different Player. She admitted that she worked hard before wttc, Just watch her match from January and wttc. BTW I think it was Hayata who did not advance to Main draw few weeks ago in qatar loosing to not ranked Player, not even from China.

there is something about ranking which truly makes this decision quite stupid. For instance Koki Niwa after quite good WTTC (quaterfinal) lost his place from 8 to 12, while at the same time players who did not score a lot like Pitchford advanced. I understand that the points from last year march...

Feel sorry for Koki good fight, both deserve to win

Hirano Just retire! She showed nothing special and nothing New. Doo hoi kem did good work fighting cheng meng who is now much better then DN. Remember that Doo barely beat ishikawa.

somehow I think An Jaehun and Kato Miu will take titles :)

great effort by Pucar, he was very close. Hope to see him more in world tour.

big relief for Niwa, it was realy tought even score does not show it. Well done Kuba.

Mizutani without glasses play much better. Big win for Kato, it will help her to find good spot in JNT.

ma long looked exhausted in last game, seems after he lost game 5 he lost his motivation

Seems zyl found a good way to keep cm on her bh, when cm tries to Play fh from by side zyl keeps her on deep bh and she is always late.

I do not see this problem as lack of creativity. She is just worse player and that is it. She has same problem like Mizutani, they cannot beat top chinese players because they are not agressive and they do not have power in their shots (few years ago I heard mizutani complaing about power in his...

yes I think it is about culture, we have in Poland one club where they are truly loud: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylIrWeyw6NA Maybe it is a good way to beat china, usualy they are the loudest.

sorry guys I cannot watch hirano playing. She has no idea what to do besides playing diagonally BH to BH. She is here for a while and I do not see any development from her. For me she is the worst player in JNT. ZYL played really poor and still she managed to win.

interesting first set hirano vs zhu - they are both very nervous. Zhu was leading 5:0 then Hirano took 7 points in a row Zhu 1 point to 6:7 Hirano next 3 poins to have 10:6 Zhu came back with 3 direct points With 10:9 hirano took time out (i think unnecesary) but she got lucky with the edge.

They should talk more about hirano who cannot pick up her form and looses to much lower ranked opponents. How long others are going to say she is still young - next 5 years? If there is nobody better that is fine, but they have some also very young girlanda like hayata or kato who could develop...
